[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The extreme inland ice on Greenland daily releases ice into the sea. This fantastic and beautiful iceberg starts its journy south with the ocean currents, from the Icefiord in Disko Bay near Ilulissat in Greenland.

The Icefiord produces at the moment 70km3 ice each year which is approx. the same as 12% of what USA (63 millon tons) uses in one year.

The icebergs can travel for long distanses following the ocean currents. One iceberg observed from this area was located outside the Azores.

Hi Joar!

Looks wonderful indeed, and the notes with it are very interesting too! I'd only like to know how big it could be, for ex. how long from left to right on the picture? (just by guess)
Centered composition is fine with me this time, the exposure is perfect and details are very good too.
TFS and for your time on this!

Best regards,
Andor

I would just love to be there to see something as amazing as this and the wonderful thing is, that although I can't be there, I still get to see and experience its beauty, here on Trek Nature. So thanks heaps for sharing it with us.

Cheers
Nicki
